• Colouring pencils are widely used at schools and playschools as well as by artists and drawing enthusiasts worldwide. Although all colouring pencils are typically considered one large group of products, there are actually numerous types of colouring pencils designed for various tasks.
• Typically, colouring pencils come in a form of narrow wooden case which protects a solid pigment core that’s inside of it. There are different types of colouring pencils depending on the type of pigment used; standard colouring pencils come with a wax style core which allows delivering various colour options; you can also come across water-colouring pencils which require brushing with water to create a nice watercolour effect.
• When talking about colouring pencils you have to mention sketching pencils – these are commonly used prior to applying colour or on their own to create black and white drawings thanks to their ability of delivering great shading and various effects depending on the properties of the core. The softer the core, the better it is for sketching or blending and the harder cores are ideal for drawing straight lines and very detailed elements. Soft pencils are available on a scale from B to 6B and hard ones can be found in HB to 5H scale.
• The most popular colouring pencils are the ones designed for children, they usually have a round shaped barrel and often include ABS technology which prevents the drawing core form easy braking. This is a very useful feature as especially smaller children put a lot of pressure on colouring pencils when drawing. Such colouring pencils also have a soft core which makes it easy to use for colouring large areas.
• Colouring pencils that are designed for art and drawing amateurs or professionals come typically in a hexagonal barrel. Such shape of colouring pencils provides improved grip and allows more precision which is very important for most of users.
• There is a large variety of pack sizes that you can get colouring pencils in – the minimum amount of colouring pencils is 12 and such quantity provides a good spectrum of colours; if you are looking for larger variety of colour variants you can get colouring pencils which come in pack of 24 different colour pens. There are also special school packs available which contain 144 or 360 colouring pencils in standard 12 colours.
• On our site you will find the best quality colouring pencils from brands like Derwent, Lakeland, Staedtler and Bic.

Very good | |
"Very good crayons. My daughter loves them. They are really long and strong and that is what makes them worth their price. Also it is really handy that they can be sharpened with a normal sharpener. My daughter loves the colours in it, I have to say that pink and gold get used a lot. Also the nibs are very neat so that you can write with them and that is really handy. Now these crayons are my favourite and I am sure that I am going to get more as soon as my daughter run out the old pack." | ||

Great | |
"These colouring pencils are great. They are easily blendable and with the right layering, the depth of colour is decent. The pigment is rich and transfers onto paper easily. If you want professional fine art pencils, I wouldn't recommend these. However if you want good quality, casual colouring pencils at an affordable price then I would definitely recommend these.
